Questions On The Radio Show

There were questions that were asked on the radio program. As we were introducing one Mantra that was a kabbalistic Mantra, a listener called in and asked, Are you not afraid that this mantra would set free uncontrollable power? I said that since we are attempting to bring healing, kindness and positivity to the planet that I hoped that it did.

The particular mantra we introduced indeed was spoken about in some traditions as a mantra that should not be pronounced. I researched this and discovered that at the time of the original introduction, this mantra was pronounced. Only later were people forbidden from pronouncing it.

The meaning is simple. The sounds of Mantras do indeed create power for an individual and in that process, people become independent from mediators and priests. If an an individual attains his or her own connection with God Presence, clearly, the priest will no more be needed. Therefore, the priest elite of the time forbade the pronouncing of this name of the divine.

It was simply a professional, political move. They needed to protect their jobs.
